Farewell to Luperon

28 April 2012
Time to move on. I am rested and ready for new horizons once again. I've fixed the engine cooling system and starter, the wind generator and electrical charging system, the autopilot, the bilge pump and a few other things. And I've slept many many happy hours, without pitching or rolling or worrying.

There's a long stretch of coastline ahead of me before I jump into the dreaded Mona Passage for the crossing to Puerto Rico. I may stop and do some exploring or I may just blast along. I feel somewhat guilty to not have really seen this country, but I need to get somewhere I can find work as an American, and that means Puerto Rico or the US Virgin Islands.
